gold mounting

This unusually large, transparent ruby has a very large table with a small depth, so although it is 4.58 carats it presents as an 8 carat stone. As is typical of most rubies sold after 1950, this ruby has lead glass filling (whether the seller tells you or not, most rubies are lead glass filled). This ruby is beautifully set in an 18k white gold mount with 4.02 carats of beautiful white diamonds. RING SIZE: 6.5 WEIGHT: 13.5 grams MAIN STONE: Ruby 4.58 cts OTHER STONES: Diamonds 4.02 cts, VS1 clarity, G-H color METAL: 18k white gold
